Agencies How much does Navjot Singh Sidhu earning from TGIKS? Kapil Sharma has made a much-awaited return with a fresh season of The Great Indian Kapil Show, launching on Netflix. The debut episode featured none other than Bollywood icon Salman Khan, whose presence added star power to an already lively setting.
